A very recent transferred Aero train set is seen in the El Paso area this morning.



To the delight of railfans who crave seldom seen equipment running smoothly down the tracks.



And passengers love the smooth ride with modern amenities added to the classic consist.



Her wailing horn is heard as she is passing thru windy Rio Casas Texas.

This next photo shows our friend Jeff at the local pizzeria shop daydreaming.
He spots the local freight dropping off his favorite drinks at the shop.
He thinks of hitching a ride on the train to parts unknown.
However the smell of a freshly made pizza pie has him head back inside.
He will have other chances to ride another train. Pizza and a Coke definetly comes first.



Just outside of Bella Bonita Falls Texas on a gorgeous morning with cool breezes.

Alco muscle prevails over the two percent grade here.



Gulf Mobile and Ohio coaches are filled with happy passengers.



Another pleasant day in central Indiana.



Photographed from a nearby road in rural countryside.



She is ready to pick up speed on the straight section of this route.



Elegant observation car.



There she goes.

Clever use of trees dominating the foreground- it gives
feeling of drama to what would otherwise be a static
scene. The equipment looks different, too. Is that O27?

The passenger cars look like the AHM/Rivarossi coaches. They look like they have N scale couplers though, which would make sense as Rivarossi also made them in N and Con-Cor imported them instead of AHM.

Our friend Jeff is attempting to leave his troubles behind.
As he sits his behind on the coupler of the colorful boxcar.
Ready for a nice long relaxing ride in bucolic El Paso Texas.
Of course he will relax his anxious wife when he returns soon.
In a day or two after taking in the various colorful countrysides.





Another fun day in paradise for our rambunctious buddy and his family.

Nice PCC. I rode these cars for many years when I lived in the South Hills of Pittsburgh. When I was there it seemed like no two cars were painted the same.
